In the artist’s words:
Describe one of your earliest musical memories in detail. In high school, I auditioned for a talent show and got the gig! I took it seriously, outfit and all! Singing “Not Another Love Song” by Ella Mai. It was funny to see everyone shocked by my singing talent after the performance!
What are your top 3 all-time favorite albums on Apple Music, and why? Why did you choose these three albums in particular? Ari Lennox, Shea Butter Baby Doja Cat, Amala (Deluxe Version) Summer Walker, Last Day of Summer These albums are foundational to my artistry. Summer Walker inspires me with her rawness, Ari Lennox with her impressive vocal range, and Doja Cat with her vibrant personality and humor. Each of these elements influences the music I create today!
Find a song of yours on Apple Music that you love and tell us what makes it special. Tell us why you chose this song. “QUESTIONS” “Questions” was unofficially released in 2023 after an event manager encouraged me to share music content. To my surprise, people supported and loved the record, even though it wasn’t part of my original plan. Their response was truly unexpected!
What’s one of the most memorable moments in your career so far? Performing at The Apollo is one of my proudest accomplishments. It marked the start of my career, even without an official project. The booking team saw my potential, showing that opportunities can arise at any stage; you just have to be ready!
Is there anything left on your bucket list as an artist or band? I dream of flying internationally to perform, as I’ve never traveled abroad before. It's definitely on my bucket list!
